Texas tumbles out of both top 25 polls

The reverberations from the debacle Saturday night in Provo, Utah, hit again on Sunday.

Texas tumbled out of the Associated Press media poll and the USA Today coaches’ poll in the aftermath of the Longhorns’ humiliating 40-21 loss at BYU. Texas was gashed for a school-record 550 rushing yards by BYU in a physical mismatch.

It marked the first time the Longhorns were out of the AP poll since losing to Kansas State in the regular-season finale last season. UT was tied for 28th in the media poll released on Sunday and 29th in the coaches’ poll.

Oklahoma State improved to 12th in the media poll and 13th in the coaches’ poll. Oklahoma was 14th in the media poll and 13th in the coaches’ poll.

Baylor was 22nd in both polls and TCU was 24th in both polls.

Among other teams receiving votes included Texas Tech (36th in coaches’ poll) and Kansas State (tied for 40th in coaches’ poll).
